started m Chicago months ago the active manager of the harvester trust complained that he was being followed by detectives and that various skirt-baited traps had been laid for him in washington recently he cap tured a detective and brought him before the united states senate com mittee the suit came without warning and with no previous demand for a money settlement all the attorneys would admit yesterday was that hen ning was a man of standing m Chicago and that he had made up with his wife attorney donahoe declared that this fact would not affect the dam age already done there was
